RE: Effective ways of getting individuals funded to work on ASF projects

Just thinking out loud ... The ASF could never be an entity that people could come to looking for commercial support. That would just be in conflict with being a non-profit charitable organization. However, we also have this discussion about the endowment from the pinaple funds donation. How

Re: Effective ways of getting individuals funded to work on ASF projects

We can’t know the motivations of anyone funding a “tidelift” effort. And we have trademarks / brand to help deal with misnamed vendor product. PMCs have the same guarantees with vendors and funders - none. Do we need a clearer statement about participation as individuals? Do we need

Re: Effective ways of getting individuals funded to work on ASF projects

My experience with vendors that employee people to work on ASF projects is that they have their own internal processes that are separate from the ASF’s. For example, as part of their product they might deliver Apache Foo for Acme Bar. The version they ship might not exactly match what the ASF

Re: Effective ways of getting individuals funded to work on ASF projects

The way this discussion is going makes me want to ask why should tidelift be any different from a vendor that pays individuals to work on ASF projects as part of their employment? The same neutrality ought to apply. Why do we need to make a new classification? All the best, Dave Sent from my

Thank you Rich for the recco- and thank you tan, I'm glad to hear Jono's new book is good too- (I bought it on impulse and was having second thoughts about it, but hadn't started it yet) On Wed, Mar 2, 2022 at 6:56 PM tan zhongyi wrote: > Thanks for your recommendation. > I will check it out. >

Thanks for your recommendation. I will check it out. BTW: Jono Bacon’s latest book is 《People Powered: how communities can supercharge your business, brand, and teams》 Which is also very good. Best wishes, Jerry 发件人: Rich Bowen 日期: 星期四, 2022年3月3日 上午2:38 收件人: dev@community.apache.org 主题: The

Re: Effective ways of getting individuals funded to work on ASF projects

+1. It will make the maintainer's life easier with this collected information. When we bring the commercial support to the ASF project daily development, we still need to follow certain rules to avoid the conflict with the Apache way we believed. Willem Jiang Twitter: willemjiang Weibo:

The Art of Community

I want to recommend something I'm reading right now - The Art of Community, by Charles Vogl. I regret that I didn't read it years ago. I'm two chapters in, and have had dozens of moments where I have been floored by the insight, and the clear ways of talking about what makes a community.

Just to clarify "official Apache docs" not "official Airflow docs". BTW. This is case in the point - > I realized I made a mental mistake and put "Airflow" in my message where I meant "Apache" and now I have to correct it this way. In Github Discussion I would just correct it and no-one would

Re: Effective ways of getting individuals funded to work on ASF projects

Thanks Roman for the initiative. +1 on it. I think this might allow us to focus on what we (ASF) think is really important and needed by the individuals who work on ASF projects, and set our boundaries and limits their individual approach as well as clear limits and boundaries for the

Hi! top-posting here, since I'd like to summarize a few points to see where we can take this discussion. Before I do that I wanted to thank Bertrand and Jim for excellent, short emails/summaries and also special thanks to Chris for an extremely informative recap of his efforts. Personally, I'd

I also need a page refresh after taging a new project with "gsoc2022". It seems like the "table of contents" links are not working. To be honest I don't love that the Ideas Page needs to be refreshed manually and the information on it does not reflect the actual project difficulty/size. Is there
